We all have (or almost all) a Shelf of Shame, with piles of unpainted models, waiting forever to be assembled or painted. I’m not unfamiliar to that situation. However, I also have what I coined as a WIP Table of Shame: a collection of mid-painting models that never got finished for whatever reasons, be that for weeks, or years…
The number of models on my own WIP Table of Shame is starting to get out of control, stealing work space, and mostly sapping my painting mojo. This week, I made the decision to correct this situation. I know myself however; I can’t hard quit what I’m working on right now to finish those, or stop getting into new projects and ideas. I thus decided that from now own, and until the situation is under better control, I will have to finish something on the WIP Table of Shame anytime I want to tackle anything new. Hopefully, it will at least slow down the creep, if not correct the problem entirely.
